Comment: The tone is still substantially problematic. There are several seemingly unnecessary cutaways and direct quotes on tangential topics. "[t]he founders were not aware that “community college” was already a well-established concept in for instance the United States, where it stands for something different. This does create some confusion now and then.", is this an interview? Is there WP:COI? Why is this group actually notable? Utopes (talk / cont) 21:40, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: There is a very great deal wrong with the text and tone. Wikipedia doesn't have any interest in magazine narrative tone, nor in anything akin to drawing a conclusion. "Thus" draws a conclusion, as does "hence" and the quote prior to the latter is not required. "can be traced back". Can it? We do not need possibility, we need facts, please. Same with "the historical context of the views of the ACC was the ever closer and wider " which is narrative, not facts.Rather than my picking every sentence apart please edit this for tone, please remove your own POV, and cute, cut, and cut again 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 07:36, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Be careful of WP:CITEOVERKILL. Remove all primary sources as explained in WP:PRIMARYSOURCES. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 14:15, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Per WP:ORG, we need to see significant coverage of the organisation in multiple secondary sources that are reliable and entirely independent of the subject.Offline sources must be cited with sufficient details to enable them to be reliably identified for verification purposes; see WP:OFFLINE for advice. (Online sources would be preferred, obviously.) DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:22, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
